WINGED REEL - One Man's Trash

The boys from Winged Reel giving the bowfin some love with this well done shortie film.

“One Man’s Trash” is another man’s treasure. This journey takes us into
remote areas of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, seldom ventured
into with fly rods, after a toothy species widely disregarded as trash.
I’ve been talking about making this film since 2012 when I started
Winged Reel. 2016 was the year and the planning was pretty cumbersome.
The Okefenokee is a special place for me. One of the last truly wild and
remote areas in my home state of Georgia. Like my life’s reset button,
it’s an escape from my every day grind. I look forward to discussing
more what went into making this film; including some awesome [and not so
awesome] experiences with our filming team of 4 friends in the heat,
trashy old boat builds, grown men sleeping in train cars and some
serious streamer crushing action."
